摘要: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) carrying the mecC gene (mecC-MRSA) exhibited at 37°C MICs of oxacillin close to those methicillin-susceptible S. (MSSA). We investigated whether this temperature, mecC-MRSA strains respond flucloxacillin treatment like MSSA strains, using a rat model endocarditis. Flucloxacillin (human-like kinetics 2 g intravenously every 6 h) cured 80 100% aortic vegetations infected with five different strains. These results suggest that infections may successfully β-lactams.
